The Future of Real Estate: Why 3D Virtual Tours Are Here to Stay


The Future of Real Estate: Why 3D Virtual Tours Are Here to Stay

Today’s real estate industry is competitive, and gaining any available advantage will always be welcome to help an agency grow. Open houses draw many curious attendants, but there is no assurance that those in attendance are prepared to buy a home. Many real estate companies have found that 3D virtual tours attract better-prepared buyers than open-house attendants.

What is a 3D Virtual Tour?

A 3D virtual tour is a 3D computer representation of a building that a prospective buyer can view and then move through at their own pace. This method gives the illusion that you are inside the home, and a potential buyer can feel as though they are inside the house. The 3D tour will move at the same pace as if you were walking inside the home.


Virtual tours began to gain popularity during the COVID-19 pandemic of 2020. With real estate agents unable to guide prospective clients through homes, a 3D tour allowed the agent a viable alternative to house tours. Agents have learned these tours are an invaluable tool, and they see their continued use of them is still beneficial.

Benefits of 3D Virtual Tours

When prospective buyers access a virtual tour, they will perceive that they are stopping and scrutinizing their surroundings. Viewers will go beyond reviewing a still photograph of the area; they can change the angle from which they view each room. If they want to, they can zoom in and out and include visual angles that wouldn’t be possible from a series of still photos.


Viewing a 3D tour will save time for a busy property manager; you won’t have to travel to the building site until many people view the online tour, and the field of prospective buyers has been whittled down to only those genuinely interested. Real estate companies have learned they don’t have to limit these tours to their websites. They can reuse the same virtual tours on their social media websites, multiplying the number of prospects who will virtually “attend” your tour.

The Future of Real Estate

The 3D virtual tour will give a spatial depth perception and almost tactile experience. Many of these tours are now narrated, and prospective buyers can feel as though they aren’t just watching the tour - they become immersed in it.


Real estate companies that have already used this technology will undoubtedly find that that AI (artificial intelligence) will further enhance the quality of virtual tours. Agents will no longer need to stage real estate properties since the AI program can stage the home.

Virtual Advantages for Real Estate Sales

With a 3D virtual tour, prospective buyers can see a clear picture of the homes you have for sale and look them over before an in-person tour.
